The mere volume of authentic re- partee of George Bernard Shaw in any year would be proof enough that he la the wittiest man alive to -day. Oae of his latest shafts has to do with the rehearsals of the famous playwright's "Saint Juan." his !uter- i/rotation of Joan of Arc, acclaimed by the critics of Loudon and New York. It shows how whimsical G. B. Shaw la at rehearsals. "Twinkling," Was the way ono member of the London "Saint Joan" company describes it. He gave an example of an instance he over- heard. In the course of hi, part,1 one of Shayle 0ardner's lines is, "1' don't know," and the actor's inton- ation did not quite satisfy the auth- or. "Are you married?" Shaw asked. "No," replied Gardner. "Well," said 0. B. S. "if you were married, you'd know how to se), that lin.--wives are always asking ques- tions." Doubtless Gardner was able to get the line right without resort- ing to the desperate remedy suggest- ed by the dramatist. •'The one entirely honest speaker 1 have met is Mr. Bernard Shaw." says Cyril Scott, In his new volume of recollections. "My Years of Indigene time" He once said to me: 'I was in the middle of a opeeeti when sud- denly I quite forgot *heel was say- ing, and had to ask someone in the front row. There will a roar of laughter, but atter that I felt the udience even more with me than before." Britain's Biggest Dome. What la the largest dome In Bri- tain?

Here is found the largest collection of Bibles in the world.

The mere volume of authentic re- partee of George Bernard Shaw in any year would be proof enough that he la the wittiest man alive to -day. Oae of his latest shafts has to do with the rehearsals of the famous playwright's "Saint Juan." his !uter- i/rotation of Joan of Arc, acclaimed by the critics of Loudon and New York. It shows how whimsical G. B. Shaw la at rehearsals. "Twinkling," Was the way ono member of the London "Saint Joan" company describes it. He gave an example of an instance he over- heard. In the course of hi, part,1 one of Shayle 0ardner's lines is, "1' don't know," and the actor's inton- ation did not quite satisfy the auth- or. "Are you married?" Shaw asked. "No," replied Gardner.
